Wow, it's almost been a year since I posted something on Pennies In My Pocket. LONG story short, life got in the way of my blogging. I know, the nerve! ha.

If you're interested, you can find me over here: www.6FeetOver.wordpress.comYou'll be able to see what I'm up to now. It's fantastic!! If you're going to leave a comment, leave it over at 6 Feet Over because I'm never on Pennies anymore.

I just found a magazine deal on Amazon. Am I the only one who loves to receive magazines in the mail? It's like Christmas in my mailbox. I know, cheep thrills, but it's true. I've received them as gifts and I gotta tell you, it is the gift that keeps on giving all year long. Thinking I may need to go through the deals here and find some gifts for people...

Ahhhh I love weekends and I really believe that Saturdays are just as fabulous as they were when I was a kid. A little sleepin' in, make a big breakfast, lounge 'round the house, get things done...I do wish we could have 3 Saturdays a week.

OK, I'm doing it...I'm staying up late to post the Friday Sale. I really wish Amazon would give me a 'peek' pass into the Friday Sale so I don't have to wait for the clock to strike twelve, but oh well. I just had to break myself away from the book I'm reading to partake in a little bargain hunting. Anyone else reading The Secret Life of Bees?

OK, so my blog posts are fewer lately. I've been trying to get to bed earlier...which is a big struggle for me. I'm a night owl by nature, but as I'm aging, it gets harder and harder to function the next day. I used to work on my blog at midnight and now that time slot has poofed out of my schedule. I am amazed at how well some of you bloggers do with staying consistent with your posts. Maybe I need to hire some of you to work on mine!
